A UK "realistic what I eat in a day" short from Emma Cutler, narrated on camera. Breakfast is porridge made with super smooth oats and milk, with an instant Alcafé vanilla latte. After a short pilates session comes a sweetened whipped instant iced coffee made with milk, the "lockdown way". Lunch is a toasted wrap with peri-peri sauce, spinach, cucumber, ham and cheese, with a side of tomato and cucumber. Tea (the evening meal) is jacket potato with baked beans and grated cheese, with a dark red drink beside the plate. A bag of ready salted crisps is the evening snack.

Meal by meal

Breakfast: porridge and vanilla latte

Good 307 kcal

Emma kicks off with a bowl of smooth porridge made with milk, plus an instant vanilla latte on the side.

Oats and milk bring steady whole grains and a bit of protein.

“Porridge and a latte: the official uniform of a chilly morning.”

Food	At	kcal	P	C	F	Fibre
Porridge (super smooth oats made with milk)1 bowl: about 40 g oats with about 180 ml semi-skimmed milk · 220 g Why this estimate Oats are a thin layer in the bowl and the milk just covers them. Semi-skimmed milk is assumed (the usual UK default). No toppings seen.	0:01	235	10	33	6	4
Vanilla latte (Alcafé instant sachet made with hot water)1 sachet (about 18 g) in a mug of about 250 ml · 268 g Why this estimate Made with water only, so the calories are just the sachet powder. Served next to the porridge.	0:03	72	2	12	2	0

Drink: whipped iced coffee

Mixed 175 kcal

After pilates, they whip up an iced coffee with instant coffee, sugar and plenty of cold milk.

The milk adds protein, but the whipped sugar sneaks in sweetness.

“Pilates done, so naturally it's time for a second coffee.”

Food	At	kcal	P	C	F	Fibre
Whipped iced coffee (instant coffee, sugar, milk, ice)About 500 ml jar: 1 heaped tsp instant coffee, about 8 g sugar, about 300 ml semi-skimmed milk, plus ice · 330 g Why this estimate Coffee and sugar are whipped with hot water and poured over milk. One heaped tsp of sugar is seen going in and there may be more already in the mug. Ice adds nothing. Semi-skimmed milk is assumed.	0:10	175	10	22	5	0

Lunch: toasted ham and cheese wrap

Good 404 kcal

Lunch is a toasted wrap with peri-peri sauce, spinach, cucumber, ham and cheese, with tomato and cucumber on the side.

Solid protein plus fresh veg, though the ham brings some sodium.

“The toastie maker is clearly the hardest-working appliance in this kitchen.”

Food	At	kcal	P	C	F	Fibre
Toasted ham, cheese and salad wrap with peri-peri sauce1 large flour tortilla (about 62 g), about 1.5 tbsp Bramwells peri-peri sauce, about 15 g spinach, about 25 g cucumber, 4 thin slices of ham (about 48 g), about 28 g cheddar · 200 g Why this estimate Peri-peri sauce is spread on the tortilla (about 15 kcal). The ham pack label gives 28 kcal per 2 slices, so 4 slices is about 56 kcal. Cheese is a few strips of mild cheddar. Toasted in a toastie maker with no oil.	0:17	385	23	35	16	3
Side salad (tomato and cucumber slices)3 slices of tomato (about 80 g) and 4 thick cucumber rounds (about 40 g) · 120 g Why this estimate No dressing seen.	0:24	19	1	4	0	1

Tea: jacket potato with beans

Good 647 kcal

For tea, it's a jacket potato loaded with baked beans and melted grated cheese, with a dark red squash.

Beans and potato skin deliver a proper fibre feast.

“Jacket potato, beans and cheese: the comfort food that never misses.”

Food	At	kcal	P	C	F	Fibre
Jacket potato1 medium-large baked potato, split (about 280 g cooked) · 280 g Why this estimate Two halves are visible under the topping, so 1 potato. No butter seen.	0:25	260	7	56	0	6
Baked beans in tomato sauceAbout 250 g (a bit over half a 400 g tin) · 250 g Why this estimate Covers most of the plate. Uses standard UK baked beans values (about 78 kcal per 100 g).	0:25	195	12	32	0	9
Dark red drink (probably no-added-sugar blackcurrant squash)1 tall glass, about 300 ml · 300 g · low confidence Why this estimate Only seen behind the dinner plate. No-added-sugar squash is assumed. If it is full-sugar squash or juice, it would be about 100–140 kcal.	0:25	6	0	1	0	0
Grated cheddar cheese (on jacket potato)About 2 handfuls, about 45 g · 45 g Why this estimate Sprinkled over the beans and melted.	0:26	186	11	0	16	0

Snack: ready salted crisps

Mixed 134 kcal

The evening wraps up with a little bag of ready salted crisps.

Tasty crunch, but it's mostly salt, fat and refined carbs.

“One small bag of crisps, and the day is officially complete.”
